West Ham have sent Irons-crazy seven-year-old  Kai Goddard a bundle of goodies from the manager and players after hearing the little lad has successfully come through a third heart operation in Australia.

ClaretandHugh alerted the club to the little boy’s  bravery after we reported that his  Dad Mike posted on the group’s Facebook group that “Kai went in for his third open heart surgery and he insisted that we both wear our West Ham jerseys. And he asked that I post this pic (shown above)  to my Hammers friends COYI ‘X’”

Mike and his family had been touched by messages of support all around the world and not just from West Ham fans but supporters everywhere.

West Ham – having been alerted to the little boys courage  – immediately responded with a source declaring:  “He’s a very brave little lad and his love of the Hammers is fabulous.

” We’ve sent over a bag of goodies signed by the team. It’s a mixture of toys and cards signed by the players and we hope it really cheers him up. He’s a great kid.”
